If our culture could make up its mind about sexual liberation, it would not need horror. It would either embrace sexual license wholeheartedly, as Mary [Shelley]‘s husband did, or repudiate it wholeheartedly, as Christianity does. But horror is a sign that the culture cannot make up its mind. – Monsters from the Id, E. Michael Jones

The modern left understands one fundamental reality: Destroying Christianity destroys the culture and civilization it spawned. They are inextricably linked. This is why socialists, such as Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Saul Alinsky and George Soros, have championed militant anti-Christianity, free love, contraception and abortion. Smash the family and traditional morality and the economic system they gave birth to – capitalism – will come crashing down. – “Obama’s Culture of Death,” Jeffrey Kuhner

I’ve followed E. Michael Jones’ career for many years now, often citing his works in the magazine I edited in the 1980s and in the syndicated column I produced in the 1990s. I corresponded with him a bit and once sent him a giant package containing four monster standees (Frankie, Drac, Wolfie, and Creature) that I had obtained for free from a Blockbuster Video store after a Halloween promotion. He used them the following year to decorate his own house for the neighborhood trick-or-treaters.

Holy St. Joseph, Spouse of Mary, be mindful of me, pray for me, watch over me. Guardian of the paradise of the new Adam, provide for my temporal wants. Faithful guardian of the most precious of all treasures, I beseech thee to bring this matter to a happy end, if it be for the glory of God, and the good of my soul. Amen

Novena to St. Jude

O most holy apostle, St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, people honor and invoke you universally, as the patron of hopeless cases, of things almost despaired of. Pray for me, for I am so helpless and alone. Please help to bring me visible and speedy assistance. Come to my assistance in this great need that I may receive the consolation and help of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, particularly (state your request) and that I may praise God with you always.
I promise, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you by publishing this request. Amen.
